I think students are not a reliable source of information about the effectiveness of LLM tutoring. There is no 100% nice way to say this, but I did my best. You're free to disagree, but I think the tone criticism is off-base.

We found our way to "No True Math Student". I love it!
I agree with you completely. People mistake the impression of learning for learning itself super easily. This is why we have examinations and other tests of mastery, after all. I think using LLMs for generating exams or supplementary material is great, but using them to develop accurate understanding that would actually turn into long term retention seems dubious to me.
